Weird Trick Makes Your Brain Younger, UCLA Expert Reveals

Received: 2015-06-15 21:56:05

Dear Reader,

Gary Small, M.D. knows brains, inside and out.

He should . . . He’s the director of the UCLA Longevity Center and a professor of psychiatry. His research, supported by the National Institutes of Health, has made headlines in The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times.

Dr. Small lectures throughout the world as a noted brain expert. He frequently appears on The Today Show, Good Morning America, PBS, and CNN. He has written six books, including The New York Times
best seller The Memory Bible.

But now, he’s outdone himself. In his brand-new book, he makes you a BIG promise:

Give him just 2 weeks, and he’ll give you a younger, better brain!

That’s right . . .

In 2 Weeks to a Younger Brain, which he co-wrote with his wife, Gigi Vorgan, Dr. Small will prove it to you. With his help, you’ll see how easy it is to boost your cognitive abilities and stave off or reverse brain aging.

Plus, these techniques are so powerful, research shows that what you learn in just two short weeks may keep your memory performing at peak efficiency for the next 5-10 years.

Based on his many years of research, Dr. Small offers a warning, particularly to baby boomers:

If You Are 40 or Older, Brain Health
Should Be Your Number One Priority

That’s because UCLA studies now indicate that forgetfulness begins much earlier than your middle-aged years.

Scientific findings show that those as young as 20 can already have memory issues. And subtle brain changes associated with mental decline can be observed by age 40.

So if you find yourself misplacing your keys or glasses . . .

If you find yourself forgetting someone’s name — or a word that’s "on the tip of your tongue” . . .

There’s no time to waste.

Memory slips, or “senior moments,” result from the wear and tear of aging on your brain. This wear and tear comes from oxidative stress, inflammation, and other chemical alterations that deteriorate your brain and nerve cells.

These mental lapses can be terrifying, particularly after age 40. You may wonder (and rightly so) if YOU could be on a downward spiral toward Alzheimer’s.

The good news is that while our brains do gradually age, you possess the ability to slow, stop, and often reverse the brain aging process.

The key?

Let Dr. Small Show You What Causes Brain Aging — Then Use His Simple Strategies to Beat It

The Alzheimer’s Association reports that over 5 million Americans suffer from Alzheimer’s today. About half a million people die each year from this horrific disease.

Because memory loss and Alzheimer’s have truly reached epidemic proportions in this country, Newsmax wants to give their health-oriented readers the chance to pick up a deeply discounted copy of Dr. Gary Small’s newest book 2 Weeks to a Younger Brain.

In this easy-to-read book, you’ll find simple ways to strengthen your memory and mental sharpness. And find the secrets to keep your brain young for the rest of your life.

Dr. Small will show you how it takes only 2 weeks to form new lifestyle habits that will bolster your cognitive abilities and stave off or reverse brain aging.

You’ll find brain-boosting discoveries to help you with:

Clear thinking

Steady, stable mood

Laser-focused attention

Stronger memory

Better problem-solving ability

Great visual and spatial skills

More satisfying relationships

His book translates the latest brain science into practical strategies and exercises with quick and long-lasting benefits — and not only for your memory. These very same strategies also will reduce your risk for heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, other major killers.

You see, lifestyle habits affect your brain more than your genes do. Take stress, for example.

Those Under Chronic Stress Increase Their Risk for Developing Alzheimer’s disease

When you get your book, you’ll hear about a Swedish study that evaluated the brain effects of stress in over 1,000 women for 35 years. Investigators found that subjects with more stress during middle age had higher risks for Alzheimer’s later in life, along with more brain abnormalities.

What’s more, these researchers also found that the number and duration of midlife stressors were independently linked to dementia risk later in life. So those with more stressors (such as divorce or loss of a job) would be more likely to develop dementia than those with fewer stressors.

Other studies indicate that those prone to stress are three times more likely to develop Alzheimer’s compared to those with better coping skills.

The good news is that, despite the stress you face today, you can learn how to protect your brain from long-term damage with the simple stress-busting tools you’ll find in Dr. Small’s book.
